Hi guys,
I recently got a new gasket to go between the manifold and down pipe...but it is not easy to get the old one off with the manifold in situ. Is there a trick, or shouls I remove the manifold?
Also, when fittlng the pdown pipe to the cat, and cat to middle section, do I need gaskets or just sealant. What sort of sealant should I use? I read somewhere on here not to use exhaust paste on the cat.
And one more thing
1...I am struggling to get the cat off the middle section. Is it an imperial bolt ans the 13 mm spanner keeps slipping and I do not want to damage the bolt. Or do I need to apply heat via a blow torch?
Thanks!
